Shanghai, London, bin liners.

My work is currently messing with the minds of the Chinese as I type. If you happen to be there, duck into the Xin Dan Wei Gallery in Shanghai for some recent live/street art video stills.

If you’re closer to home, my paintings titled ‘you are the company you keep’, ‘Toby’ and ‘Art Slave’ are on exhibition at Victoria House in central London, near the British Museum/Oxford st, until 18th December.

Massive thanks to The Enterprise Centre for the Creative Arts for awarding me with the Creative Enterprise award: ‘successful freelancer’. Very humbling and, I have to admit, a little unexpected – the nominees were incredible… http://www.ecca-london.org/events/entweek/enterpriseweek2009/creativeenterpriseawards/. If anyone managed to get a photo of me at the ceremony holding the champagne & wearing my bin-liner, they would be much appreciated.

Still polishing off the new website. It’s turning out to be an art in itself. Blimey. Let me know your thoughts? I am aware it looks like it’s been pushed though a mincing machine on small monitors. Bear with.

If you’re part of the bizarre additional universe that is bookface, please hook up to the new Art Slave page. It’s a bit of an experiment.

Here’s a new painting. “Fate”.
